My Dying Love

Eyes filled with tears A voice that nobody hears Could you stay for a while? Only you can make me smile Memories are not what I need Without you why should I proceed? Your things put away as you try to explain Instead I ask you to leave me with my pain The bed sheets smell of your sweet perfume Our love story regretfully will never resume My heart begs an explanation as you depart All I have are thoughts and a tormented heart How does one walk away from his only reason Of living in a world that grants a winter season Tell me how to make this go away and I will Don’t leave me with pictures on my window sill The decision is for you to make and that I respect If you say no my heart will silently object I sit and hope to see you return some day Until then I will make it through some way Be well darling and know that you’re missed
